The images used on this site, with the exception of Wordpress imagery available for the blog theme, derive from either: images purchased under license from Shutterstock.com and/or iStock.com, images provided by friends/other bloggers and images derived from sites designated as 'free'. (Note that the photo of me in the About section was taken and released by professional photographer Steve Brown, as attributed.)
My aim is to ensure I only use imagery in an appropriate manner in relation to ownership. In all cases the original/identified photographer or website source will be credited. I claim no copyright or ownership for any imagery (unless I choose to publish my own photos and attribute them thus).
